I always found the front grills way to big. I also don't like the side marker thing... it looks weird.

They had to make the front so that it would be safer if a pedestrian was hit by the car. Government ruining sh!t again

I like the new 7 and 5 looks like BMW is going back to their design roots however the driving experience has been diminished greatly. I drove the new 5 a couple of weeks ago and walked away disappointed. It drove just like a Lexus, the steering was numb and the ride was too plush. I strongly believe that the last gen 5 series and the current 3 series and 1 series will be the last true "Ultimate Driving Machines". BMW is more interested in volume than anything else and during this rough economical times you really can't blame them.

This.

They are getting killed by safety standards and being forced to raise the hoodline.

lol.

when the last generation 7 series first came out- it was also discussed on here, and people exclaimed how much they hated the design. Now the new one is out, people are used to the "old" one, and the whole process starts all over again....
